(NEW YORK) — Attorneys for Hunter Biden dropped a lawsuit accusing Fox News and its parent company of targeting him with “revenge porn,” according to court documents filed late Sunday.<\/p>\n

A person familiar with Hunter Biden’s legal strategy told ABC News that they dropped the suit with the intention of refiling it against new defendants.<\/p>\n

The suit was filed three weeks ago over Fox News’ production of a fictional miniseries that attorneys for Hunter Biden called “an effort to harass, annoy, alarm, and humiliate him, and tarnish his reputation.”<\/p>\n

The miniseries, called The Trial of Hunter Biden<\/em>, is described by Fox as a mock trial that seeks to show “how a possible Hunter Biden trial might look,” and includes several sexually graphic images of Hunter Biden.<\/p>\n

When the litigation was filed, Fox News called it an “entirely politically motivated lawsuit is devoid of merit.”<\/p>\n

The suit was voluntarily withdrawn Sunday within hours of President Biden’s announcement that he was withdrawing from the 2024 presidential election.<\/p>\n

Hunter Biden’s legal team did not respond to a request for comment from ABC News.<\/p>\n

The president’s son was found guilty last month on three counts related to his 2018 purchase of a firearm while allegedly addicted to drugs. He faces a separate trial on tax charges in September.<\/p>\n
